It was 1 week later, the week of the concert and Holly was nervous. Would they show up? She had chosen to do the concert no matter what anyone else said but she was not alone, secretly each person in the room at the time of the announcement had come to her and told her they would do it. It would be a surprise to all of them to see each other doing it as well. Holly smiled. Trouble had agreed to do it as well, this would be fun. Butler and Juliet sneaked into the office where Holly was stood and said together “We’re here” They were the perfect choices for bodygaurds as no one could get past them. They walked into the lounge with the other bodygaurds and began to have a chat, still on gaurd of course, you could tell Juliet wanted to body-slam someone into the wall. Trouble came in and stood with Holly for a while. he finally said “I’m going to go and get ready,” but before he could leave Holly gave him a kiss on the cheek, “Good luck” she whispered with another smile. Minerva was last to come through the door and gave her a thumbs up when she walked past. All present and correct, thought Holly. Foaly and his new girlfriend were in the techni booth but where was Artemis? She walked into her dressing room as the show began to start. It was Lily Thompson then Sarah Grant then her. She was still nervous, butterflies where dancing the can-can in her stomach. Holly would walk onto the stage, sing, Minerva would sing, she would introduce Emily who would fly over the crowd, trouble would come on and then Artemis… if he was here. Holly got dressed and then walked to the left wing of the stage. As Sarah trotted off Holly felt like she wanted to run, but she stayed. As the light dimmed for her entrance she took a deep breath. Here we go….”
